"Post-Truth", Politics and Regression
The algorithmic strategies of the "post-truth" era came to unconfigure politics and are undermining the foundations of the old democracies. In addition, the new ‘clickbait’ dynamics are aggravating the already fragile positioning of the journalistic phenomenon in the contemporary world.This algorithmic turn, which came to politics, news and social interaction, is evolving to a fathomless dimension, not only because it constituted the algorithm in gatekeeper but also because it created propaganda machines specializing in social engineering, in automating political behavior and in emotional chains, manipulating opinion and creating new spirals of silence. Culture, politics and communication face these new gulfs. In this paper we will try to analyze this vertigo, this technologization and dystopia of mediation and knowledge, the new propaganda, armed now by Artificial Intelligence, in which digital platforms and their algorithms do not yet control the processes of interaction and communication, although they clearly monitor and track us, bringing the democratic experience back to more complex levels of historical and political regression. Keywords: Internet, Politics, Post-truth, Journalism, Democracy (see PDF Portuguese)
Media, diversity and globalisation in the digital age
Cádima, F. R. (2017). “Media, Diversidade e Globalização na Era Digital”, Janus.Net. Vol. 8, nº 2 (Novembro 2017-Abril 2018), pp. 88-100. Media, diversity and globalisation in the digital age
The issues of cultural diversity and the plurality of voices in the current digital and global environment are raising new challenges beyond those already identified in the context of migration from classical media to the internet galaxy. If, with traditional media, a closing logic under “the same” prevailed, with digital media we started to believe in the “apotheosis of the dream of diversity” (Curran, 2008). But the truth is that the elimination of the old filters of information and distribution does not seem to be happening. New “gatekeeping” surrounds human intervention, with current information dissemination systems having an algorithmic basis and artificial intelligence, biasing access to news and reducing space for cultural diversity or even censuring the plurality of voices and cultural expressions. Keywords: Media, Culture, Diversity, Globalisation, Digital.

Weaponized Health Communication
Weaponized Health Communication: Twitter Bots and Russian Trolls Amplify the Vaccine Debate. Much of the anti-vaccines movement may be generated by malicious actors with malicious objectives. Whereas bots that spread malware and unsolicited content disseminated antivaccine messages, Russian trolls promoted discord. Accounts masquerading as legitimate users create false equivalency, eroding public consensus on vaccination.

Jovens e internet: que idade para o consentimento parental?
Jovens e internet: que idade para o consentimento parental? (Cristina Ponte e Tito de Morais). Público, 21 de fevereiro de 2018
A propósito do Artigo 8.º do Regulamento Geral de Proteção de Dados e dado que este começa a produzir efeitos a 25 de Maio de 2018, a Profª Cristina Ponte, membro do CIC.Digital/ICNOVA, escreveu, com Tito de Morais, fundador do projeto MiudosSegurosNa.Net, um artigo de opinião publicado recentemente no jornal Público.
No texto, já subscrito por muitos cidadãos, os autores defendem que aumentar para 16 anos a idade do consentimento poderá contribuir para agravar um problema, em vez de o resolver:
“O Regulamento Geral de Proteção de Dados (RGPD), que produz efeitos a partir de 25 de maio, impede as empresas de serviços digitais de realizarem práticas de data-profiling de menores de idade, transferirem dados pessoais a entidades terceiras sem consentimento explícito prévio, e impõe o "direito ao esquecimento". Por sua vez, menores de 16 anos devem obter consentimento parental para aceder a serviços digitais, uma medida que agora se situa nos 13 anos.
“Saudando os aspetos positivos desta regulamentação, discordamos do aumento de idade no contexto português onde em muitos lares têm sido os mais novos a levar as famílias para o digital e onde permanece um fosso digital entre gerações.”
O artigo foi também publicado no site do Projecto MiudosSegurosNa.Net e está aberto a todos aqueles que o desejem subscrever. Assim, se quiserem subscrever o artigo, por favor sigam o link acima e usem o formulário no fim do artigo para se tornarem signatários:
